Discover how Walsh Waste and Recycling transformed their recruitment process with Occupop, reducing time to hire by 50%, cutting recruitment costs by 85%, and improving candidate experience. Read the full case study.
As the company expanded, Dan Regan and his HR team faced significant challenges in managing multiple recruitment platforms, each requiring separate logins, passwords, and workflows. This cumbersome process slowed down recruitment and impacted overall efficiency. Dan recalls the frustrations: “We had different platforms to load a single role, resulting in a selection of logins and passwords. Recruitment became time-consuming, and we needed to work smarter, not harder.”
With a target of hiring 30 employees annually and only one person on the HR team, finding a more efficient solution became critical. The company also needed to improve communication within the recruitment process to align with its broader strategic goals.
Before implementing Occupop, Walsh Waste struggled with high recruitment costs and delays in filling vacancies. The manual processes in place meant time to hire often stretched to over a month. Dan recognised that streamlining the recruitment process would lead to significant cost savings and faster hiring.
Poor candidate experience was another major concern. With a disjointed recruitment process, candidates often experienced delays in communication, and the overall employer brand suffered. The team knew they needed a centralised solution to enhance their visibility and provide a more consistent, positive experience for applicants.
After evaluating multiple recruitment solutions, Walsh Waste turned to Occupop, having experienced its simplicity and effectiveness in previous roles. Dan had used the software before and was confident it was the right fit for their recruitment needs. “I had used Occupop in the past and felt it was a wonderful solution,” Dan shares.
Occupop provided the team with a one-stop tool for managing the entire recruitment process. With its intuitive interface, it simplified the process of multi-posting roles across job boards and social media platforms. This feature alone was invaluable in saving time and reducing manual workload.
The implementation process was seamless, with Walsh Waste going live with Occupop within two weeks. Dan credits the platform’s ease of use and support from the Occupop team: “The customer success team at Occupop was exceptional. Any time I had a meeting request, issue, or problem, the team was always available and responsive.”
Occupop’s key features, such as automated email templates, AI-powered CV screening, and interview scheduling, allowed the HR team to focus on higher-value tasks instead of getting bogged down by administrative duties.
One of the most significant improvements Occupop brought to Walsh Waste was its ability to improve internal communication. The platform allowed Dan to share candidate profiles with hiring managers in real time, facilitating faster decision-making. Preloaded responses helped streamline communication, speeding up the recruitment process significantly.
The implementation of Occupop at Walsh Waste led to several tangible improvements:
Occupop’s automated processes and job board integrations enabled the HR team to hire faster than ever before. The platform’s smart candidate screening and one-click job posting helped attract top talent quickly, reducing the time to hire by 50%.
By centralising and streamlining recruitment through Occupop, Walsh Waste reduced their reliance on costly recruitment agencies and premium job boards. As a result, the company saw an 85% reduction in recruitment costs, saving over £27,000 annually.
Walsh Waste significantly improved the candidate journey by automating communication and scheduling processes. Occupop’s user-friendly interface allowed the HR team to engage candidates faster and more effectively, reducing the number of no-shows by 70% and improving overall candidate satisfaction.
With Occupop, Walsh Waste was able to build a stronger employer brand through consistent and professional candidate engagement. The company’s visibility across job boards and social media platforms increased, attracting higher-quality candidates. “For recruitment, Occupop has assisted us with our brand identity and helped advertise across various platforms,” Dan explains.
Occupop’s candidate management system streamlined the approval process for hiring managers, making it 100% faster than before. The real-time updates and easy access to candidate profiles allowed managers to make quicker, more informed decisions, further reducing the time to fill vacancies.
